It's a corporate practice they find hard to shake, and sadly enough, it seems to work.
The idea is about platform solutions vs. best of breed, and they keep betting on the platform. In big organizations with lengthy and complex contracting procedures, platform solutions will always win.
The actual solution for the economy is Interoperability, if we fight for governments to require it, we can get platform providers that allow best of breed bundles. We will gain open market platforms, where you choose the market platform that works for you with the combination of solutions that work for you with one or just few contracts. Markets that close themselves or fight their vendors will lose both vendors and customers.

2. Atlassian has a terrible way of managing feature requests priorities, not unique to them, but they definitely have an impact on many developers, which is why they (deserve and) get the huge shaming
3. I managed to move my company from Bitbucket to GitLab, for many reasons, but the main reason for me was that I simply couldn't manage the settings using their APIs, they have a very weird concept of APIs
4. They send people to fill in tickets and on Uservoice, but rarely do they actually listen to reasonable requests (tickets I still get notifications: Bitbucket user public SSH keys and Archiving projects in Bitbucket)
5. So the issue is not this or that product, it is that Atlassian doesn't have the real end users in mind, just the paying users, the end users can suffer, but not many people will resign over a product used at their company, so nobody really fights the company over it, and thus Atlassian keeps getting paid for terrible products that get new terrible interfaces from time to time
